The Hitchiker's Guide to Ipernity

Friday May 29, 2009 at 05:48PM

... the answer to life, the ipernity and the rest...

- We're in here for the fun, so enjoy yourself and the contact with other members
(The vogons will destroy earth anyway, so why not have a good laugh first? )

- Before creating a group, check if it doesn't exist already!
(If it's too late, nevermind. Parallel galaxies may co-exist and they're Mostly Harmless. )

- I've seen the groups 1+ Faves, 3+ Faves, 5+, 7+ (all primes!), 10+, 25+, 35+, 50+, 100+, ...
(By the way, is there a group called 42+ faves??) Yes, of course!!!! And I didn't even start it!!

- However, please don't post 42 versions of the same pic.
(Unless you are a Vogon .)

- When you reply to a comment, click "Reply" first. Sounds logic, but apparently it isn't.
(I know this demands a lot of effort, so use your towel!! Carry it at all times!)

- You can't see all of your latest network uploads?
DON'T PANIC!! It might be fixed at the End of the Universe.

- Got a comment in a strange language?
Feed the Babel Fish underneath the comment... So long and thanx to the Mice!

- And Another Thing: have fun!
Whatever that is....

Marvin.

would be an idea to read this trilogy once again and to begin with tomorrow on my week-end trip. in the hope that there won't be a whale landing on my way ...

i read it once, saw the movie (it sure wasn't easy to make), now i think i should listen to the original broadcasts, whenever i come across it.

Lodchjo replies:

wow, must be a strong memory. i read the books as an adult already.
it's a pity the dvd doesn't have the audiofiles as a bonus...

Gegrapha, temporarily lost in real life^pro replies:

For me the books came many years later when I had forgotten about the clandestine radio-nights. But after the first chapters the memory came back. The dvd/movie is what I don't know. And I'm not sure whether I want to see it.

Lodchjo replies:

Well, you can imagine how hard it must have been to turn the series into a film. I'd say mission impossible, but that's another movie :D
Well, there's good parts and bad parts in the movie...

Lodchjo replies:

oh, yes... :D
i discovered some anonyumous lurkers of mine: over the years, i gave my ipernity url to family and friends and since not all of them are registered members, they go by 'anonymous'. so, some are less anonymous... but they're just the minority.

mad.melon replies:

i wonder: if we ask politely, maybe ip team remove that "who visited you" shit from homepage? :P that will make me block less :D:D:D

lunaryuna^pro says:

Fully agreed, but could you please add to the guide that it is highly undesirable to post Vogon Poetry underneath other voyager's images ... :D

Lodchjo replies:

hahaha!! so that's why some people suddenly left the Iperity universe??

lunaryuna^pro replies:

I guess that's the reason for constantly shifting waves and currents of networking socializers :D
